Answer:

c) Fullerene and carbon nanotubes because they have empty spaces inside the  molecules

Explanation:

Fullerene and carbon nanotubes would be the most desired in order to hold the cancer fighting drugs and to carry them through the body safely.

  • These molecules have empty spaces in them.
  • The cavities makes it possible for storage.
  • As they pass through the body, they can be held perfectly well to their target site of action.
